Got this in an email today...thought some of them were kinda funny...and also things I may do
20 WAYS TO KEEP YOUR SANITY
1. At lunch time, sit in your parked car with sunglasses on and
point a hair dryer at passing cars. See if they slow down.
2. Page yourself over the intercom. Don't disguise your voice.
3. Every time someone asks you to do something, ask if they want
fries with that.
4. Put your garbage can on your desk and label it "IN".
5. Put decaf in the coffee maker for 3 weeks. Once everyone has
gotten over their caffeine addictions, switch to espresso.
6. In the memo field of all your checks, write "for smuggling
>diamonds".
7. Finish all your sentences with "in accordance with the prophecy".
8. Don't use any punctuation.
9. As often as possible, skip rather than walk.
10. Order a Diet Water whenever you go out to eat - with a serious
face.
11. Specify that your drive-through order is "to go".
12. Sing along at the opera.
13. Put mosquito netting around your work area and play tropical sounds all day at work.
14. Go to a poetry recital and ask why the poems don't rhyme.
15. Five days in advance, tell your friends you can't attend their
party because you're not in the mood.
16. Have your coworkers address you by your wrestling name, Rock Bottom.
17. When the money comes out the ATM, scream "I won! I won!"
18. When leaving the zoo, start running towards the parking lot
yelling, "Run for your lives!, they're loose!!"
19. Tell your children over dinner "due to the economy, we are going
to have to let one of you go."
20. And the final way to keep a healthy level of insanity...e-mail
this to someone to make them smile and laugh. It's called therapy. |

Three things I've learned in relation to sanity:
1) Sanity is dangerous (to success). Never be totally sane.
2) Insanity is dangerous (to life). Don't be completely insane.
3) Static/lack of movement (towards sanity or insanity) is potentially worse than sanity or insanity alone. Always be moving.
The key is to ride the threshold, balance the beam, straddle the line (as much as possible).
In my experience: All true and massive brilliance happens at the event-horizon of sanity/insanity.
Many of the most brilliant/revolutionary individuals appear to act as if they are borderline insane (but not total insanity). This is not intentional, but by design (in the brilliance/revolutionary process). |

me too. The frustrations and road blocks I've hit in the last 4.5 hours were making me go insane. I think it's time to give up for tonight (on this high note) and try this thing called life again tomorrow. :)
damn international business taxes and patent registration! grrr. |
